Finnish dairy farmers’ perceptions of justice in the transition to carbon-neutral farming
2022
Highlights • Finnish dairy farmers' perceptions of issues with carbon neutrality were examined. • Concerns include farming profitability, farmer blaming, and use of peatlands. • Public policy guidance is needed for carbon-neutral, sustainable agriculture. Environmental and political debate concerning the role of agriculture in sustainability has long been on the agenda. However, owing to climate change, an analysis of the transition to a low-carbon society must also be considered from the perspective of justice. Dairy farming, in particular, faces pressure in this context, when contemplating changing consumer behaviors and reduction in the carbon footprint of dairy products. Accordingly, ma…
Ihmisoikeudet, demokratia ja sosiaalinen oikeudenmukaisuus opettajankoulutuksessa
2020
Tarkastelemme tässä artikkelissa demokratia- ja ihmisoikeuskasvatuksen toteutumista opettajankoulutuksessa Suomessa ja viitteitä yhteiskunnallisen ilmapiirin muutoksesta ihmisoikeuksien ja demokratian kannalta negatiiviseen suuntaan. Tuomme esiin näkökulmia yhteiskunnallisiin osallistumismahdollisuuksiin kielellisten oikeuksien ja erilaisten taustatekijöiden suhteen. Demokratia- ja ihmisoikeuskasvatuksen ydinsisältöihin kuuluu edistää sosiaalista oikeudenmukaisuutta sekä inklusiivista ja moniäänistä kasvatusta sekä teoreettisesti että käytännöllisesti. Tutkimuksemme mukaan demokratia- ja ihmisoikeuskasvatus ei tällä hetkellä toteudu opettajankoulutuksessa eksplisiittisesti, vaikka opettajak…

Justice in transitions: Widening considerations of justice in dietary transition
2021
Just transition is gaining increasing attention. The need to consider social justice in sustainability transitions is finally being acknowledged. Research on this issue has, to date, mainly concentrated on energy systems. In this paper, we examine how the elaboration of dietary transition widens the spectrum of justice questions in sustainability transitions research. We explicate the arising normative questions along the dimensions of distributive, procedural and recognitive justice; widening the considerations further to restorative and cosmopolitan justice. Dietary transition widens the justice considerations to basic needs, food security and nutrition. By doing so, it evokes socio-cultu…
Oikeudenmukaisuus elollisia olentoja kohtaan : Porfyrioksen pidättäytymisen etiikka
2020
In this article, I argue that Porphyry’s conception of justice in On abstinence is remarkable for several reasons. While I agree with Fay Edwards that Porphyry does not assume the moral status of animals to depend on their rationality, I argue that Porphyry’s claim is not based on any form of the assumption that animals deserve moral consideration only if they share some relevant property with human beings. Contrary to Edwards, I argue that this is not because justice is irrelevant to animals in On abstinence 3. Rather, extending abstinence from causing harm to humans to apply also to non-human animals and plants is a constitutive element in the higher forms of justice that Porphyry require…
Vara elää : ikäihmisten kokemuksia köyhyydestä ja oikeudenmukaisuudesta
2015
TIIVISTELMÄ Vara elää. Ikäihmisten kokemuksia köyhyydestä ja oikeudenmukaisuudesta Riitta Tervamäki Pro gradu- tutkielma Sosiaalityö JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO/ Kokkolan yliopistokeskus Chydenius Ohjaaja: YTL, yliopistonopettaja Helky Koskela, yliopistonlehtori, YTT Kati Turtiainen Syksy 2015 sivumäärä: 68 sivua Tämän pro-gradu tutkielman tarkoituksena on tutkia mitä köyhyys merkitsee ikääntyvälle ihmiselle suomalaisessa yhteiskunnassa.

Finnish Quality Evaluation Discourse : Swimming Against the Global Tide?
2023
AbstractThis chapter discusses Finnish quality evaluation in comprehensive education, recognising that it frequently differs from that used by the Global Education Reform Movement (GERM) in most countries. Instead of high-stakes testing of pupil achievement, monitoring or school inspection, Finnish quality evaluation (QE) rests mainly on sample-based national testing and self-evaluations conducted in schools and municipalities. The argument presented here is that, although reform of the Finnish education system has often taken a different path from other countries, at the level of discourse, the Finnish system is increasingly caught between the more usual approach to QE and the Finnish vari…
Language Education for Everyone? Busting Access Myths
2023
AbstractFinland has, rather successfully, promoted an image of itself as a model of educational excellence and linguistic equity. This chapter problematises this image by analysing Finnish language education policies at the comprehensive school level. For our analysis we use a three-fold understanding of access as; (a) having the opportunity to participate in language education (getting in); (b) participating in education that is meaningful and effective for the pupil (getting it); and (c) receiving credentials that are societally legitimate and valuable assets (getting out). We elaborate on each aspect of access by debunking three myths for the Finnish context that: (a) Multilingualism is …
Ecological Sustainability and Steering of Finnish Comprehensive Schools
2023
AbstractWith the climate catastrophe and biodiversity loss, our globe is facing enormous challenges: the basis of life on Earth is in danger. Eco-anxiety and global eco-social crises are also driving education to search for solutions to build a sustainable future, for instance the United Nations Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development views education as a key instrument for change. One of the key promises of the Finnish Ministry of Education is to commit to sustainable development, and the Finnish National Forum for Skills Anticipation states that important future skills should include knowledge of sustainable development. In national reports on how to carry out Agenda 2030, Finland has hig…
